Xiahou Dun glanced at the pile of hammers and walked towards the horse camp with big strides.
When the generals saw his back, they all chased after him.
The group hurried to the horse camp.
I saw that the wooden fence was wide open and half of the horses in the stable were gone.
The cavalry captain ran hurriedly to Xiahou Dun.
"Meet the Marshal."
Xiahou Dun's face was dark: "The whole army has 100,000 soldiers."
“Tell me about the three thousand horses in the stable.
How was it taken away by the 'Red North People'? ”
The cavalry captain's shoulders began to tremble when he was suddenly yelled at.
...
...
He stammered, "Three thousand horses... three thousand horses..."
The cavalry captain raised his eyes to examine Xiahou Dun's expression, but he didn't dare to say anything else.
Xiahou Dun's patience gradually ran out, and his trusted men drew their swords and pressed them on the cavalry captain's shoulders.
"explain!"
The cavalry captain was so frightened that his legs went weak and he immediately knelt on the ground with a pleading look on his face.
"General, I really have no idea. It's all because the 'Red North Barbarians' are too cunning.
While you were away negotiating, they secretly sent people to steal horses from the army. ”
The confidant pressed his knife hard against the cavalry captain's neck, and bright red blood stained the blade.
The cavalry captain closed his eyes and said, "Not only did they launch a surprise attack, they also wore our military uniforms and held a token to ask me to open the door. They want to... to support Lieutenant General Sun."
The cavalry captain took out the token asking him to open the door with trembling hands.
The confidant took the token and looked at it carefully.
He widened his eyes and yelled, "Idiot!"
"Where did this person come from in the army?"
"A fake token can trick you into coming over. Do you think I'll keep you here to eat dry food?"
"If there were 10,000 of them, the stable would be looted!"
The cavalry captain knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and the soldiers on duty behind him knelt in the open space.
"Marshal, I really don't know!"
"Please give me a chance to redeem myself and make meritorious contributions!"
Xiahou Dun nodded to his confidant, and the cavalry captain was killed in the act.
The head fell to the ground with a thud, with a sad expression on the face.
The confidant shouted loudly: "If you dare to slack off on duty again, this will be your fate!"
"The rest of you will be punished with 20 military sticks!"
The soldiers kneeling on the ground saw the wet ground and the bloody smell constantly irritated their noses, so they began to kowtow and express their gratitude.
"Thank you, Marshal, for not killing me!"
When Xiahou Dun returned to the tent, the military doctor had already tied up Lieutenant General Sun with bandages.
The confidant asked, "Deputy General Sun, what's going on?"
The military doctor saluted quickly and said, "General, Lieutenant General Sun's life has been saved for the time being."
"If you can survive three days without a high fever, you'll be fine."
The confidant waved to the military doctor, and everyone else in the tent retreated.
Xiahou Dun lowered his eyes and saw Lieutenant General Sun’s pale face.
He said: “The Dajing Army disguised itself as the Chibei Army and not only attacked our army’s camp.
He also disguised himself as a soldier of Beiliang and rode away with three thousand horses in a swagger. ”
"This is the art of warfare. Prince Dajing is smarter than his uncle."
"With him at the border of Dajing, the Northern Liang army will suffer."
"This child must not be allowed to stay!"
…
Chibei Camp.
Tarsan led his troops and rushed back to Chibei's camp.
The Chibei camp was brightly lit, and the soldiers were ready to go, surrounding the camp.
“I’m back!”
"The third prince is leading his troops back to the camp!"
When the Chibei soldiers heard the news that Tarsan had returned to the city, a glimmer of light appeared on their decadent faces.
General Zhao was sitting on a stone slab with a big horse and a golden sword. When he heard the soldiers shouting, he stood up suddenly and ran out of the barracks.
Tarsan squeezed the horse's belly and tightened the reins. The horse raised its front hooves and neighed before stopping steadily.
General Zhao ran, and his armor made a clashing sound.
He gasped and ran to Tulsan.
"Third Prince, you are back."
"The Northern Liang Army has no moral principles. They sent you away to discuss the alliance, while at the same time they led their troops to attack our camp."
"The soldiers of the vanguard battalion suffered heavy casualties."
Talsan looked down at him and said nothing.
General Zhao stretched his neck and looked at the cavalry behind Talsan.
He asked in confusion: "Our 2,000 cavalry went to support the pursuit of the 'Northern Liang Army', why didn't they come back with you?"
Hearing this, Tarsan's eyes revealed a violent look.
Sangbu, Tarsan's confidant, heard what General Zhao said.
He glanced at Talsang's expression, strode forward, and slapped General Zhao in the face.
"waste!"
“You’ve been fooled!”
"They were all fooled by the Dajing Army!"
General Zhao was slapped in the face, his ears were buzzing and stars were flashing in his eyes.
He stumbled and fell on his butt.
He covered his face and asked unwillingly, "Did you get fooled?"
Sangbu said angrily, "This is all a conspiracy by the Dajing Army!"
"Let Chibei and Beiliang kill each other, so that they have no energy left to attack Dajing's Zhiyi City."
"That useless Hu Riwei trapped 20,000 soldiers from Chibei in Zhiyi City for no reason.
The 2,000 cavalrymen you saw were all Dajing soldiers who dressed up in Chibei’s clothes and sneaked into the military camp to steal the war horses. ”
Sangbu became angrier as he spoke, veins popped up on his face, and the red bloodshot under his eyes was even more frightening.
General Zhao also reacted: "This... I... what should I do now?"
Sangbu turned around and clasped his fists towards Tarsang, “Third Prince, the Dajing army will attack Chibei and Beiliang in two directions.
There was only one way for them to get back to the city.
I hope the Third Prince will allow me to order my subordinates to lead 5,000 soldiers to chase after them! ”
Tarsan half-closed his eyes, and the anger on his face grew deeper and deeper.
He jumped on his horse and said, "Pass on my order, 5,000 troops to pursue the Dajing army, and send another 10,000 troops to reinforce!"
Tarsan turned his horse around and said, "I want to meet the horse thief myself!"
"drive!"
…
On the north tower of Zhiyi City.
Gu Zhenbei stood on the city wall and looked out of the city.
The endless darkness seemed to swallow up the depths of the plain.
He said calmly: "Is there still no movement outside the city?"
Gu Shijie took the telescope and slowly moved his view, looking for the Dajing army that was attacking out of the city.
“I’m back!”
"Dad! General Yang and the others are back!"
"Three more miles!"
Hearing this, Gu Zhenbei's tense face relaxed a little.
He gave the order: "Prepare to open the city gates to welcome General Yang."
The city gate slowly opened, making a sharp sound.
Yang Jin led his soldiers and galloped into the city on horseback.
Gu Zhenbei ordered his men to go forward and verify the identities of the soldiers leaving the city one by one to prevent any enemy spies from sneaking in among them.
Yang Jin jumped off his horse, smiling with his white teeth showing.
He stroked the newly abducted horse and walked towards Gu Zhenbei holding the reins.
"General Gu, look at this Ferghana horse. What a miserable life it's going through in the Chibei military camp!"
"I took some people with me and used a handful of hay to coax these horses into obeying my orders."
Gu Zhenbei saw that he was smiling and knew that his plan to leave the city would be very smooth.
He asked in a low voice: "General Yang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Deputy General Chen have not returned to the city yet."
"Does Your Highness have any other plans?"
